1. It is difficult to make a posterior root footprint in the anatomic position and secure the graft through a tight posteromedial joint space. 2. Sometimes, the posterior root of the allograft is bent and loosened after fixation. |
1. The posterior bone plug is reduced for the bone shell containing cancellous bone. 2. Superficial medial collateral ligament release is performed using a periosteum elevator to obtain increased medial compartment opening. 3. Leading suture of bone plug is pulled out via the anterolateral side of tibia to provide firm fixation. |
